Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to solve the problems of bat algorithm including low convergence accuracy, slow convergence velocity and easily falling into local optimization, this paper presents an improved bat algorithm based on differential evolution algorithm. The mutation, crossover and selection mechanism of differential evolution algorithm is introduced into bat algorithm, the bat algorithm lack of mutation mechanism has the variation mechanism, so as to enhance the diversity of bat algorithm, the population can avoid falling into local optimum, which enhances the ability of global optimization for bat algorithm. The Simulation results of three standard benchmark functions show that the improved algorithm can greatly improve the convergence precision, convergence speed and robustness, and can effectively discourage the premature convergence.
